F-List Drabbles Batch 2
This should round out the last of the non-Sorkin drabbles. (Unless someone gave me a prompt when I wasn't looking. You're still more than welcome to give me a prompt, whether it's Sorkin or not.)
Title: George's Post-Its
Word Count: 200
Fandom: Dead Like Me
Prompts: "any characters - post it confusion"
For: unoriginal_liz
Note: This is a double drabble simply because I had too many characters to keep it at 100 words. The spoilers are for the end of the Direct-to-DVD movie. If you haven't seen it, it's nothing that wikipedia won't spoil.
"What's this?"
"It's a post-it, Daisy."
"I can see that, George. Why did you give me one?"
"I guess, I'm just an old-fashion girl. Here, Mason. One for you too."
"Thanks, luv. What's this, then?"
"A post-it, Mason. We've already established this."
"All right, Daisy. No need to bite my head off."
"What's going on here?
"George is passing out post-its and Daisy is being mean to me again."
"Daisy is always being mean to you, Mason."
"Here, Roxy. This one's yours."
"....George, where did you get this?"
"You don't want to know, Roxy. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get to Happy Time."
"My God... How......... Will you two idiots stop gawking at me and actually read your post-its."
"But this... this is a REAP!"
"Very good, Mason."
"That's ridiculous. Why would Georgia be passing out reaps?"
"Well, I can think of at least one reason, Daisy. Can't you, Mason?"
"They... they wouldn't do that to her, would they? Not my little Georgie. She hasn't even been dead a decade yet!"
"See, Daisy, even Mason gets it."
"Hey! What do you mean 'even Mason'?"
"Roxy, you mean to tell me..."
"Yup. Our George is now 'The Man'."
Title: Charm Practice
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Harry Potter
Prompts: "Luna & Draco, charms practice"
For: farmerliz
Notes: Though this works within the book canon (sorta), I prefer to place it within the movie-universe, just because of the heights the actors who play Luna and Draco.
With a "Oh please, let me. I need the practice", Luna flits off to retrieve your book which Draco is currently holding hostage. (You're grateful, because, if Harry or Ron went, it would only end in expulsion.)
You can't hear what Luna says exactly, but in a matter of minutes, Draco hands the book over to Luna with a slightly baffled expression on his face.
"How did she do that?" Ron asks in total awe.
"Charm," you explain as Luna prances back.
"Luna charmed Draco?" Harry asks, utterly astounded.
"Well, yes" you grin. "But not in the way you mean."
Title: A Typical Moment in the Milligan-Jones Marriage
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Doctor Who
Prompts: "Martha Jones - alien medical technology"
For: unoriginal_liz
Notes: I like that Martha gets her happy ending.
"You know what I hate about alien medical technology, Tom?"
"It renders years of medical training moot?"
"I wish! No, it's the fact that it's all rubbish!"
"It can't be that bad, Martha. Can it?"
"Do you remember that whirly thing Jack found? Took me three days just to figure out it's for the elimination of cerumen from the pinna. Nothing excessive or impacted, mind you, and apparently it's bad for the external auditory canal."
"Wait, you mean...?"
"It's an ear wax remover. And not even a good one."
"Think I'll stick with my terrestrial medicine, thanks."
"Wish I could."
Title: Silly Putty
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Doctor Who
Prompts: "Tenth Doctor, Silly Putty"
For: zinke
Notes: I wrote this with Martha in mind as the companion, but I think it works no matter who you choose.
"Let me get this straight. You've travelled though time."
"Yep."
"Seen thousands and thousands of advanced civilizations."
"Right-o"
"And your favorite invention still is..."
"Silly putty! The most brilliant mistake ever invented!
"...silly putty. You serious?"
"Of course, I'm serious. Never leave the Tardis without it."
"But it's a toy."
"Yes. Yes, that it is."
"It has no useful properties."
"Not true. It's a fairly good adhesive."
"I've never seen you use it."
"Well, it helps to be prepared. One never knows and all that."
"But it's Silly Putty!"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Did you want to play with it?"
"Please."
Oh, and for those of you who were wondering... I finished a full West Wing fic!
